Hello Vincent,
adding "internal features" sounds a great idea to me. Will increase the
utility of the map.
One point of attention, I would avoid adding security measures (fences,
access buildings, gates, security cameras etc).
Depending on the site (Doel, BASF), this information is protected by law.
Kind regards
Maarten
